I don't have a problem with the boys jackets. I use the All in One hooper and also use the two double height wooden hoops for the backs. They usually hoop up really slick. When hooping up the jackets with the access port it just slides over the top of the hooper, with the hoop upside down. Works really well. It is just the hoods that I have a problem with. I don't sell the jackets, and the kids have several shops to buy from so I get a variety of them. With snaps in the corners, without, with nylon zippers, with metal ones. Sometimes even the 17.25 hoop doesn't work. =========================================================== The AmayaUsers Mailing List Website: http://www.amayausers.com Discussion Board: http://www.amayausers.com/boards Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://www.amayausers.com/list ===========================================================
